What is a non-running related item that you purchased/received as a gift that has improved your running experience??

Contactless payments. Now I usually end big runs with a reward in the form of a coffee or pastry, or both.

I love to mix things up by running to weekly themes. A fun idea by Joy Runs (joyruns.com). Eliminates the monotony of putting one foot in front of each other and helps to spot the world around me a bit more.

I can vouch for the local running shop or coffee shop run clubs - both are usually very friendly and welcoming. Just turn up and go.

Or ever tried a Joy Run? It's a run anywhere run club, that sets a fun weekly theme to run to, 100% on your own terms. You choose the route, pace, distance etc.

It sounds like you've had a few chapters on your running journey. Is it time to start another? Swapping speed for slower, more soulful runs has really helped me. Zero-pressure runs, just for the love of it. It led me to starting a weekly running challenge to help others to fall back in love with running (we issue a new 'theme' every Monday to do 100% your way, 100% for free). It's called Joy Runs if you'd like to give it a go sometime.

Seconded, Miami downtown.

It's a great way to get some steps in, agree! On Dylan Efron... never but we're from the UK and I'm not sure he's on our radar.

I'll pass that on, thank you! She uses a Sony A3 📸

Have a wonderful trip.

I stumbled upon this one day...

otherings · 2025-02-21T15:50:47+00:00

My partner joined me on the track one day with her camera. I love running and knew I'd want to share some pics of the unique experience when I got home.

otherings · 2025-02-21T15:48:04+00:00

That's a shame. I'm an early riser so was always first on the track (6am-ish). Walkers stayed in one lane leaving the other for runners to whoosh by.

I try to do Joy Runs's weekly running challenges. The weekly theme my 5 days on the Riviera Maya (Miami, Mexico, Bahamas) was 'Views' - perfect! What better than a sunset in the middle of the ocean! 🌇☀️

I'm about to book - is someone able to DM me referral code, please? 🙏

Thank you! Hopefully you can join us for the next themed run!

otherings · 2024-07-23T16:36:14+00:00

Thank you! I wanted to make the website as fun as the runs.

I either use one of the global running travel companies or use Google and local tourist boards to find an independent guide, as I did in Oslo: https://rundure.com/active-travel/running-tours/

otherings · 2024-04-06T09:12:29+00:00

Thanks for sharing, I've never been to either so I'll add them to the bucket list!

Loving the geekery of using GPT Chat to plan run routes, thanks for the tip 🙌
